Narrabri township will remain on Level 4 water restrictions, with a temporary sprinkler and splash pad exemption in place from Thursday, 29 January 2026.
The Violet Street Bridge will be closed from Monday, 19 January to the end of September 2026 for bridge replacement works. A detour will be in place along Selina Street, Newell Highway and Tibbereena Street.
The Santos Festival of Rugby is set to return to Narrabri’s Dangar Park on 10-11 February 2023.
The centrepiece of the festival will once again be a pre-season game between the New South Wales Waratahs and Queensland Reds Super Rugby teams. Playing for the Santos Cup, this is a chance for the teams to get a good hit-out before the Super Rugby Pacific tournament kicks off.
The annual celebration of rugby will also include elite Sevens, country representative matches and men’s and women’s Super-Rugby fixtures.
Besides the action on the field, the program of events includes junior coaching clinics and family fun activities. There will also be live concerts on the Friday and Saturday nights by country super stars, Brad Cox and Casey Barnes. Tickets available via https://premier.ticketek.com.au/shows/show.aspx...
